If the person gets too much CO2 & or CO they pass out & fall down. FACE UP life vest / jacket is a must.

If they end up in a face down / mouth & nose in the water ? They can drown / die in a minute. They suffocate. I have a heart stoppage condition. I simply pass out with no pain or warning. I would suffocate if swimming.

Exhaust location & release is in the same relative location. Difference is the prop thrusting water tube is not there to keep the exhaust gases under water longer & farther back. Is exhaust gas fumes more serious ? I do not know. Did we trade better prop safety for a increased exhaust problem. Maybe at certain slower speeds. Would need testing to state a positive or negative change.
